justifying the move indoors, aka a smaller venue that was easier to pack, while dumping on those that said it was because BHO's having a hard time drawing flies and/or mosquitoes to fill up the stadium

That's a circular argument. A smaller venue easier to pack, yet those claiming he was having a hard time filling the large stadium were wrong? That's like saying I eat donuts for the nutritional value, but they sure are fattening...

“My suspicion, based on nothing but tactical logic, is that Obama and his advisors decided a grand stadium appearance would make it difficult to portray the President as humble but resolute, his sleeves rolled up.”

Technically, this is hagiography, not ‘journalism’.

The man could have covered Stalin for TASS. Simply appalling.
